The task was to design a compact, battery-powered sensor that mounts easily inside any shower. It needed to detect humidity and water use accurately without requiring plumbing or hardwiring, all while surviving a constantly wet environment.
Our role
Made By Makers handled the industrial design and user experience. We focused on creating a clean, discreet Scandinavian design that feels natural in a modern bathroom rather than looking like a piece of utility equipment.
Process
We worked closely with Aguardio to combine durable materials, waterproof sealing, and intuitive feedback. The display was engineered to deliver instant, clear timing data that gently prompts shorter showers without feeling intrusive.
Result
The Aguardio Shower Sensor brings together behavioral nudge technology and simple, timeless design. It offers both residential and commercial users an easy way to save water and energy with a sleek, self-installed device.
Client
Aguardio creates smart technology designed to make everyday life more sustainable. Their mission is to lower water and energy use in homes and hotels by giving people real-time awareness of their showering habits.
